Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020

(All amounts in tables stated in thousands or thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and include all of the information and disclosures required for interim financial reporting. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and financial notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which are necessary for a fair representation of financial results for the interim periods presented.

References to “Net1” are references solely to Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. References to the “Company” refer to Net1 and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively, unless the context otherwise requires.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business

The Company’s business has been, and continues to be, impacted by government restrictions and quarantines related to COVID-19. South Africa operates with a five-level COVID-19 alert system, with Level 1 being the least restrictive and Level 5 being the most restrictive. South Africa is currently at adjusted Level 1, which has a limited impact on the Company’s businesses. The South Africa government commenced its vaccination program in early calendar 2021, with a stated goal of vaccinating 67% of the South African population by the end of the calendar year.

The broader implications of COVID-19 on the Company’s results of operations and overall financial performance continue to remain uncertain. While the Company has not incurred significant disruptions thus far from the COVID-19 outbreak, apart from the two months in April and May 2020 when loan origination was curtailed, the Company is unable to accurately predict the impact that COVID-19 will have due to numerous uncertainties, including the severity and duration of the outbreak, actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, the impact on the Company’s customers and other factors. The Company will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact on its business, consolidated results of operations, and financial condition.

July 2021 civil unrest in South Africa

Two of South Africa’s nine provinces experienced significant civil unrest in July 2021 resulting in mass looting, loss of life, disruption of transport and supply routes, and widespread destruction of property. In total 337 South Africans lost their lives in the unrest - fortunately none of the Company’s employees were injured or harmed. There was widespread damage to bank and ATM infrastructure in the affected provinces. In total approximately 1,800 ATMs and 300 branches were damaged, and the Banking Association of South Africa (“BASA”), estimates that total damage to banking infrastructure amounted to ZAR 1.6 billion. The South African Special Risks Insurance Association (“SASRIA”), a public enterprise and a non-life insurance company that provides coverage for damage caused by special risks such as politically motivated malicious acts, riots, strikes, terrorism and public disorders, estimates that the total damage to property across South Africa will be in the order of between ZAR 19.0 and ZAR 20.0 billion.

The Company suffered damage at 19 of its branches and to 173 ATMs. The disruption and related closure of branches also impacted the Company’s efforts to grow EPE customer numbers. The Company also saw an impact on transaction volumes through its ATMs with July 2021 volumes 13% lower than June 2021, and August 2021 3% lower than July 2021.

The Company estimates that it will cost approximately ZAR 40.0 million to repair its branches and damaged ATMs and to replace ATMs that have been destroyed. The Company believes that these losses suffered through destruction of property will be fully covered under its various insurance policies, through the government backed SASRIA cover.

As a result of the disruption to ATM coverage and availability, BASA and South Africa’s banks agreed that the fee which customers pay to utilize other bank’s ATMs would be waived for August and September 2021. The Company lost transaction fee revenue of approximately ZAR 6.0. million ($0.4 million) during the three months ended September 30, 2021, as a result of this decision.

Restatement of financial statements

Related to overstatement of revenue and cost of goods sold, IT processing, servicing and support

In November 2020, the Company identified an error with respect to the recognition of certain revenue and related cost of goods sold, IT processing, servicing and support during its assessment and systems development of new products. The Company incorrectly duplicated the recognition of acquiring fees in revenue and recorded an equal and opposite entry in cost of goods sold, IT processing, servicing and support in its consolidated statement of operations due to the misinterpretation of certain system reports. The error did not impact on the Company’s operating loss, net loss, balance sheet or cash flows. The Company determined that the error impacted reported results for the period from July 1, 2018 to September 30, 2020. The error impacted the Company’s reported results and the Company has restated its unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and certain note presentation, primarily Note 15 (Revenue) and Note 17 (Operating segments) for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Refer Note 25 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021, for additional information regarding the impact of the restatement on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and certain note presentation.

Recent accounting pronouncements adopted

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance regarding Disclosure Framework: Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The guidance modifies the disclosure requirements related to fair value measurement. The guidance became effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2021. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or its footnote disclosures.

In January 2020, the FASB issued guidance regarding Clarifying the Interactions Between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. The guidance clarifies that an entity should consider observable transactions that require an entity to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with U.S GAAP guidance immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. The guidance also clarifies that, when determining the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options an entity should not consider, whether upon settlement or exercise, if the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity method or fair value option. The guidance became effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2021. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or its footnote disclosures.

Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted as of September 30, 2021

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance regarding Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For trade and other receivables, loans, and other financial instruments, an entity is required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses, which reflects losses that are probable. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2023. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures, but does not expect the impact on its financial results to be material.

In November 2019, the FASB issued guidance regarding Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging(Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842). The guidance provides a framework to stagger effective dates for future major accounting standards and amends the effective dates for certain major new accounting standards to give implementation relief to certain types of entities, including Smaller Reporting Companies. The Company is a Smaller Reporting Company. Specifically, the guidance changes some effective dates for certain new standards on the following topics in the FASB Codification, namely Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815); Leases (ASC 842); Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (ASC 326); and Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (ASC 350). The guidance defers the adoption date of guidance regarding Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments by the Company from July 1, 2020 to July 1, 2023.

The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its financial statements and related disclosures, but does not expect the impact on its financial results to be material.

4. Fair value of financial instruments

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial instruments are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the transaction. Initial measurements are at cost, which includes transaction costs.

Risk management

The Company manages its exposure to currency exchange, translation, interest rate, customer concentration, credit and equity price and liquidity risks as discussed below.

Currency exchange risk

The Company is subject to currency exchange risk because it purchases inventories that it is required to settle in other currencies, primarily the euro and U.S. dollar. The Company has used forward contracts in order to limit its exposure in these transactions to fluctuations in exchange rates between the South African rand (“ZAR”), on the one hand, and the U.S. dollar and the euro, on the other hand.

Translation risk

Translation risk relates to the risk that the Company’s results of operations will vary significantly as the U.S. dollar is its reporting currency, but it earns most of its revenues and incurs a significant amount of its expenses in ZAR. The U.S. dollar has fluctuated significantly against the ZAR over the past three years. As exchange rates are outside the Company’s control, there can be no assurance that future fluctuations will not adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

11

4. Fair value of financial instruments (continued)

Interest rate risk

As a result of its normal borrowing activities, the Company’s operating results are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, which it manages primarily through regular financing activities. The Company generally maintains investments in cash equivalents and held to maturity investments and has occasionally invested in marketable securities.

Microlending credit risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk in its microlending activities, which provide unsecured short-term loans to qualifying customers. The Company manages this risk by performing an affordability test for each prospective customer and assigning a “creditworthiness score”, which takes into account a variety of factors such as other debts and total expenditures on normal household and lifestyle expenses.

Credit risk

Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that the Company would incur as a result of non-performance by counterparties. The Company maintains credit risk policies in respect of its counterparties to minimize overall credit risk. These policies include an evaluation of a potential counterparty’s financial condition, credit rating, and other credit criteria and risk mitigation tools as the Company’s management deems appropriate. With respect to credit risk on financial instruments, the Company maintains a policy of entering into such transactions only with South African and European financial institutions that have a credit rating of “B” (or its equivalent) or better, as determined by credit rating agencies such as Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and Fitch Ratings.

Equity price and liquidity risk

Equity price risk relates to the risk of loss that the Company would incur as a result of the volatility in the exchange-traded price of equity securities that it holds. The market price of these securities may fluctuate for a variety of reasons and, consequently, the amount that the Company may obtain in a subsequent sale of these securities may significantly differ from the reported market value.

Equity liquidity risk relates to the risk of loss that the Company would incur as a result of the lack of liquidity on the exchange on which those securities are listed. The Company may not be able to sell some or all of these securities at one time, or over an extended period of time without influencing the exchange traded price, or at all.

Financial instruments

The following section describes the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure its significant financial assets and liabilities at fair value.

In general, and where applicable, the Company uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities to determine fair value. This pricing methodology would apply to Level 1 investments. If quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities are not available to determine fair value, then the Company uses quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities or inputs other than the quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly. These investments would be included in Level 2 investments. In circumstances in which inputs are generally unobservable, values typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques. Investments valued using such techniques are included in Level 3 investments.

Asset measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs – investment in Cell C

The Company’s Level 3 asset represents an investment of 75,000,000 class “A” shares in Cell C, a significant mobile telecoms provider in South Africa. The Company used a discounted cash flow model developed by the Company to determine the fair value of its investment in Cell C as of September 30, 2021, and June 30, 2021, and valued Cell C at $0.0 (zero) at September 30, 2021, and June 30, 2021. The Company believes the Cell C business plan utilized in the Company’s valuation is reasonable based on the current performance and the expected changes in Cell C’s business model. The Company incorporates the payments under Cell C’s lease liabilities into the cash flow forecasts and assumes that Cell C’s deferred tax assets would be utilized over the forecast period. The Company utilized the latest revised business plan provided by Cell C management for the period ended December 31, 2025, for the September 30, 2021 valuation and the period ended December 31, 2025 for the June 30, 2021 valuation.

Financial instruments (continued)

Asset measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs – investment in Cell C (continued)

The following key valuation inputs were used as of September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021:

| Weighted Average Cost of Capital ("WACC"): | Between 18% and 24% over the period of the forecast |
| Long term growth rate: | 3% (3% as of June 30, 2021) |
| Marketability discount: | 10% |
| Minority discount: | 15% |
| Net adjusted external debt - September 30, 2021:(1) | ZAR 11.5 billion ($0.8 billion), no lease liabilities included |
| Net adjusted external debt - June 30, 2021:(2) | ZAR 11.2 billion ($0.8 billion), no lease liabilities included |

(1) translated from ZAR to U.S. dollars at exchange rates applicable as of September 30, 2021.

(2) translated from ZAR to U.S. dollars at exchange rates applicable as of June 30, 2021.

The following table presents the impact on the carrying value of the Company’s Cell C investment of a 4.2% increase and 3.2% decrease in the WACC rate and the EBITDA margins used in the Cell C valuation on September 30, 2021, all amounts translated at exchange rates applicable as of September 30, 2021:

| Sensitivity for fair value of Cell C investment |  | 4.2% increase |  | 3.2% decrease |
| WACC rate | $ | - | $ | 543 |
| EBITDA margin | $ | 30 | $ | - |

The fair value of the Cell C shares as of September 30, 2021, represented 0% of the Company’s total assets, including these shares. The Company expects to hold these shares for an extended period of time and that there will be short-term equity price volatility with respect to these shares particularly given the current situation of Cell C’s business.

Derivative transactions - Foreign exchange contracts

As part of the Company’s risk management strategy, the Company enters into derivative transactions to mitigate exposures to foreign currencies using foreign exchange contracts. These foreign exchange contracts are over-the-counter derivative transactions. Substantially all of the Company’s derivative exposures are with counterparties that have long-term credit ratings of “B” (or equivalent) or better. The Company uses quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities to determine fair value (Level 2). The Company has no derivatives that require fair value measurement under Level 1 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company had no outstanding foreign exchange contracts as of September 30, 2021.

The Company’s outstanding foreign exchange contracts as of June 30,2021, were as follows:

Notional amount ('000) | Strike price | Fair market | Maturity
EUR | 5.7 | USD | 1.1911 | USD | 1.1859 | July 02, 2021

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

The Company measures equity investments without readily determinable fair values at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The fair values of these investments are determined based on valuation techniques using the best information available, and may include quoted market prices, market comparables, and discounted cash flow projections. An impairment charge is recorded when the cost of the asset exceeds its fair value and the excess is determined to be other-than-temporary. Refer to Note 5 for impairment charges recorded during the reporting periods presented herein. The Company has no liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

Equity-accounted investments (continued)

Finbond

As of September 30, 2021, the Company owned 268,820,933 shares in Finbond representing approximately 31.5% of its issued and outstanding ordinary shares. Finbond is listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (“JSE”) and its closing price on September 30, 2021, the last trading day of the month, was ZAR 1.40 per share. The market value, using the September 30, 2021, closing price, of the Company’s holding in Finbond on September 30, 2021, was ZAR 376.3 million ($24.9 million translated at exchange rates applicable as of September 30, 2021).

Impairment of investment in Finbond during the three months ended September 2020

Finbond published its half-year results to August 2020 in October 2020, which included the financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its reported results during that reporting period. Finbond incurred losses during the six months to August 2020, and experienced a slow-down in its lending activities. Finbond reported that its lending activities had increased again since August 2020, albeit at a slower pace compared with the prior calendar period. Finbond’s share price declined substantially during the period from its fiscal year end (February 2020) to September 30, 2020, and the weakness in its traded share price continued post September 30, 2020. The Company considered the combination of the slow-down in business activity and the lower share price as impairment indicators. The Company performed an impairment assessment of its holding in Finbond as of September 30, 2020. The Company recorded an impairment loss of $16.8 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, related to the other-than-temporary decrease in Finbond’s value, which represented the difference between the determined fair value of the Company’s interest in Finbond and the Company’s carrying value (before the impairment). There is limited trading in Finbond shares on the JSE because it has three shareholders that own approximately 90% of its issued and outstanding shares between them. The Company calculated a fair value per share for Finbond by applying a liquidity discount of 15% to the September 30, 2020, Finbond closing price of ZAR 1.04.

The stock-based compensation charges have been allocated to selling, general and administration based on the allocation of the cash compensation paid to the relevant employees.

As of September 30, 2021, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options was approximately $0.6 million, which the Company expects to recognize over approximately two years. As of September 30, 2021, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock awards was approximately $2.2 million, which the Company expects to recognize over approximately three years.

As of September 30, 2021, and June 30, 2021, respectively, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of approximately $0.4 million and $0.1 million, related to the stock-based compensation charge recognized related to employees of Net1. As of September 30, 2021, and June 30, 2021, respectively, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of approximately $0.4 million and $0.1 million, related to the deferred tax asset because it does not believe that the stock-based compensation deduction would be utilized as it does not anticipate generating sufficient taxable income in the United States. The Company deducts the difference between the market value on the date of exercise by the option recipient and the exercise price from income subject to taxation in the United States.

13.(Loss) Earnings per share

The Company has issued redeemable common stock which is redeemable at an amount other than fair value. Redemption of a class of common stock at other than fair value increases or decreases the carrying amount of the redeemable common stock and is reflected in basic earnings per share using the two-class method. There were no redemptions of common stock, or adjustments to the carrying value of the redeemable common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Accordingly, the two-class method presented below does not include the impact of any redemption. The Company’s redeemable common stock is described in Note 13 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021.

Basic (loss) earnings per share includes shares of restricted stock that meet the definition of a participating security because these shares are eligible to receive non-forfeitable dividend equivalents at the same rate as common stock. Basic (loss) earnings per share has been calculated using the two-class method and basic (loss) earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, reflects only undistributed earnings. The computation below of basic (loss) earnings per share excludes the net loss attributable to shares of unvested restricted stock (participating non-vested restricted stock) from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of these unvested shares of restricted stock from the denominator.

Diluted (loss) earnings per share has been calculated to give effect to the number of shares of additional common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential dilutive instruments had been issued in each period. Stock options are included in the calculation of diluted (loss) earnings per share utilizing the treasury stock method and are not considered to be participating securities, as the stock options do not contain non-forfeitable dividend rights.

The calculation of diluted (loss) earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of a portion of the restricted stock granted to employees in May 2018, September 2018, February 2020, May 2021, July 2021 and August 2021 as these shares of restricted stock are considered contingently returnable shares for the purposes of the diluted (loss) earnings per share calculation and the vesting conditions in respect of a portion of the restricted stock had been satisfied. The vesting conditions for all awards made are discussed in Note 16 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021.

The following table presents net loss attributable to Net1 and the share data used in the basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share computations using the two-class method:

Options to purchase 270,832 shares of the Company’s common stock at prices ranging from $6.20 to $11.23 per share were outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted (loss) earnings per share because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock. Options to purchase 1,231,617 shares of the Company’s common stock at prices ranging from $3.07 to $11.23 per share were outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted (loss) earnings per share because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock. The options, which expire at various dates through November 4, 2030, were still outstanding as of September 30, 2021.

17.Operating segments

Operating segments

The Company discloses segment information as reflected in the management information systems reports that its chief operating decision maker uses in making decisions and to report certain entity-wide disclosures about products and services, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets or reports material revenues.

The Company currently has three reportable segments: Processing, Financial services and Technology. All three segments operate mainly within South Africa and certain of our activities outside of South Africa have been allocated to Processing. The Company’s reportable segments offer different products and services and require different resources and marketing strategies but share the Company’s assets.

The Processing segment includes fees earned by the Company from processing activities performed for its customers and revenue generated from the distribution of prepaid airtime. The Company provides its customers with transaction processing services that involve the collection, transmittal and retrieval of all transaction data. Customers that have a bank account managed by the Company are issued cards that can be utilized to withdraw funds at an ATM or to transact at a merchant point of sale device (“POS”). The Company earns processing fees from transactions processed for these customers. The Company also earns fees on transactions performed by other banks’ customers utilizing its ATM, POS or bill payment infrastructure. The Processing segment includes IPG’s processing activities for fiscal 2021 as IPG’s activities were ceased in fiscal 2021.

The Financial services segment includes activities related to the provision of financial services to customers, including a bank account, loans and insurance products. The Company charges monthly administration fees for all bank accounts. The Company provides short-term loans to customers in South Africa for which it earns initiation and monthly service fees. The Company writes life insurance contracts, primarily funeral-benefit policies, and policy holders pay the Company a monthly insurance premium.

The Technology segment includes sales of hardware and licenses to customers. Hardware includes the sale of POS devices, SIM cards and other consumables which can occur on an ad hoc basis. Licenses include the right to use certain technology developed by the Company.

Corporate/Eliminations includes the Company’s head office cost center and the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.

The Company does not allocate interest income, interest expense or income tax expense to its reportable segments. The Company evaluates segment performance based on segment operating income before acquisition-related intangible asset amortization which represents operating income before acquisition-related intangible asset amortization and expenses allocated to Corporate/Eliminations, all under GAAP.

The segment information as reviewed by the chief operating decision maker does not include a measure of segment assets per segment as all of the significant assets are used in the operations of all, rather than any one, of the segments. The Company does not have dedicated assets assigned to a particular operating segment. Accordingly, it is not meaningful to attempt an arbitrary allocation and segment asset allocation is therefore not presented.

18.Income tax

Income tax in interim periods

For the purposes of interim financial reporting, the Company determines the appropriate income tax provision by first applying the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year to ordinary income. This amount is then adjusted for the tax effect of significant unusual items, for instance, changes in tax law, valuation allowances and non-deductible transaction-related expenses that are reported separately, and have an impact on the tax charge. The cumulative effect of any change in the enacted tax rate, if and when applicable, on the opening balance of deferred tax assets and liabilities is also included in the tax charge as a discrete event in the interim period in which the enactment date occurs.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate was impacted by the tax expense recorded by the Company’s profitable South African operations, non-deductible expenses, the on-going losses incurred by certain of the Company’s South African businesses and the associated valuation allowances created related to the deferred tax assets recognized regarding net operating losses incurred by these entities.

31

18.Income tax (continued)

Income tax in interim periods (continued)

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s effective tax rate was impacted by the reversal of the deferred tax liability related to one of the Company’s equity-accounted investments following its impairment, which was partially offset by the tax expense recorded by the Company’s profitable South African operations, non-deductible expenses, the on-going losses incurred by IPG and certain of the Company’s South African businesses and the associated valuation allowances created related to the deferred tax assets recognized regarding net operating losses incurred by these entities

Uncertain tax positions

The Company had no significant uncertain tax positions during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and therefore, the Company had no accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions on its balance sheet. The Company does not expect changes related to its unrecognized tax benefits will have a significant impact on its results of operations or financial position in the next 12 months.

The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits. The Company files income tax returns mainly in South Africa, Germany, Hong Kong, India, the United Kingdom, Botswana and in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. As of September 30, 2021, the Company’s South African subsidiaries are no longer subject to income tax examination by the South African Revenue Service for periods before June 30, 2017. The Company is subject to income tax in other jurisdictions outside South Africa, none of which are individually material to its financial position, statement of cash flows, or results of operations.

19.Commitments and contingencies

Guarantees

The South African Revenue Service and certain of the Company’s customers, suppliers and other business partners have asked the Company to provide them with guarantees, including standby letters of credit, issued by a South African bank. The Company is required to procure these guarantees for these third parties to operate its business.

Nedbank has issued guarantees to these third parties amounting to ZAR 156.6 million ($10.4 million, translated at exchange rates applicable as of September 30, 2021) thereby utilizing part of the Company’s short-term facilities. The Company pays commission of between 0.4% per annum to 1.94% per annum of the face value of these guarantees and does not recover any of the commission from third parties.

The Company has not recognized any obligation related to these guarantees in its consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021. The maximum potential amount that the Company could pay under these guarantees is ZAR 156.6 million ($10.4 million, translated at exchange rates applicable as of September 30, 2021). As discussed in Note 8, the Company has ceded and pledged certain bank accounts to Nedbank as security for these guarantees with an aggregate value of ZAR 156.6 million ($10.4 million translated at exchange rates applicable as of September 30, 2021). The guarantees have reduced the amount available under its indirect and derivative facilities in the Company’s short-term credit facility described in Note 8.

Contingencies

The Company is subject to a variety of insignificant claims and suits that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Management currently believes that the resolution of these other matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

Recent Developments

Agreement to acquire a controlling interest in the Connect Group

On October 31, 2021, we entered into an agreement to acquire a controlling stake in the Connect Group. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the transaction agreement, the sellers will receive consideration of ZAR 3,683,559,419, which includes 3,065,883 shares of common stock to be issued in three tranches on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing. The transaction also includes a purchase price escalator that is intended to reflect an assumed increase in Enterprise Value (as defined in the agreement) from March 1, 2021, through closing at the rate of 3.05% per annum.

The transaction agreement includes customary covenants from the sellers and closing conditions, including obtaining regulatory approvals, and will be settled using a combination of cash, shares of our common stock as noted above, and external debt. We have signed non-binding term sheets for a ZAR 2.35 billion ($154.4 million) debt package with Rand Merchant Bank, a division of FirstRand Bank Limited. These include a credit enhancement mechanism of ZAR 350 million ($23.0 million), which will be provided by investment funds managed by our largest shareholder, Value Capital Partners (Pty) Ltd, on commercially agreed terms, which include a contingent subscription for new shares. If certain conditions related to our debt financing are not satisfied by their respective due dates for fulfilment for any reason, we have agreed to pay to the Sellers an amount of ZAR 50,000,000. If certain undertakings by the sellers are not completed by their respective due dates for fulfilment for any reason and the transaction agreement is terminated, the seller responsible for such failure will pay us an amount of ZAR 50,000,000.

Refer to the discussion under “Part II—Item 1A.—Risk Factors— Failure to complete, or delays in completing, the Connect Group acquisition, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and stock price.” and “We may not realize some or all of the anticipated benefits from the Connect Group acquisition.” for risks related to transaction.

Impact of COVID-19

We do not believe the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact our South African operations since the initial lockdown period which occurred between March 2020 and June 2020. South Africa operates with a five-level COVID-19 alert system, with Level 1 being the least restrictive and Level 5 being the most restrictive and is currently in adjusted Level 1. The South African government commenced its vaccination program in early calendar 2021, with a stated goal of vaccinating 67% of the South African population by the end of the calendar year. At the end of October around 38% of the adult population had been vaccinated, indicating that the goal is unlikely to be achieved. Expectations are that a fourth wave will affect the country in the coming months.

Business and operations

During the quarter our operations largely operated as normal though there is an indirect impact from the lower economic activity in the South African economy. Our insurance business is the only operation seeing a clear impact from a higher level of benefit claims which continues to persist.

34

We continue to incur direct expenditure on the purchase of sanitizers, masks and gloves for our employees and for the use of customers in our branches, but this is not significant in the context of our cost base.

Employees

Where possible, we have continued to provide the necessary facilities (computer equipment, data cards, etc.) for our employees to operate remotely and continue to encourage them to do so where this is practical and effective. We continue to provide the necessary protective equipment and sanitization facilities for those employees that operate within our offices and operating locations.

Cash resources and liquidity

We believe we have sufficient cash reserves to support us through the next twelve months. We do not believe there will be any further significant adverse effects on our liquidity from the pandemic, unless there is a resumption of the higher level of restrictions seen in April and May 2020 in South Africa. We believe that our South African insurance business is adequately capitalized to address the higher claim levels it is currently experiencing.

While we have not incurred significant disruptions thus far from the COVID-19 outbreak, we are unable to accurately predict the impact that COVID-19 will have due to numerous uncertainties, including the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, the impact on our customers and other factors identified in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors— We are unable to ascertain the full impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our future financial position, operations, cash flows and stock price” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact to our business, consolidated results of operations, and financial condition.

Financial Services Activities in South Africa

We continue to focus our South African financial inclusion activities on a business-to-consumer, or B2C, model. We believe our EPE bank account, known in the communities it serves as ‘the green card’, has a strong brand position in our target market and benefits from significant loyalty. We have been working on enhancing its presence through localized marketing which, when combined with some of the challenges of other service providers into this market, we expect to result in a return to growing customer numbers.

During the last quarter the focus has been on upskilling and refocusing our employees on customer acquisition and cross-selling of our various products. This is a significant initiative that is being driven by a new team of provincial heads who have the necessary experience of implementing and managing a sales driven culture. Many of these new provincial heads only joined the business during the last quarter and while we are already seeing improvements in sales activity, the real benefits will only be seen in the coming months.

Gross customer additions for the quarter were approximately 124,000 compared to the 43,000 of the previous quarter, while net additions amounted to 102,000 customers compared to the 33,000 of the previous quarter. This improvement was despite the impact of the social unrest experienced in parts of South Africa during July, with a number of branches damaged. This constrained some of our sales activities but the impact was short term. Based on historic data, our expectation is for 45% to 50% of these accounts to become active within three months of opening.

Processing Activities in South Africa

Our processing activities in South Africa are focused around our ATM network, which largely services a consumer base, and our transaction processing for businesses, anchored around our EasyPay offering.

Transaction volumes in our ATM business were down by 12% on the previous quarter and by 10% on the prior year, but this was largely due to the impact of the social unrest – volumes had largely recovered in September 2021. This part of our business was affected by the social unrest with over 10% of our ATMs destroyed. While we now have a smaller ATM fleet, our focus is on improving transaction volumes to compensate for this, with a focus on expanding the presence of our ATMs in various retailers.

As articulated in respect of our revised strategy, we aim to grow our business to business, or B2B, operations through the servicing of small and micro enterprises. Our B2B operations performed broadly in line with expectations with throughput growing by 4% compared to the previous quarter and transaction volumes by 11%. Opportunities related to the expansion of the processing business into the small and micro enterprises space have been identified and are being progressed.

International Activities

India – In July 2021, MobiKwik filed its draft red herring prospectus with the appropriate Indian regulator related to its proposed initial public offering process. We did not identify any observable price changes in orderly transactions for similar or identical equity securities issued by MobiKwik during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and therefore did not change the carrying value of our investment.

Status of Cell C recapitalization

35

Cell C – We continued to carry the value of our Cell C investment at $0 (zero) as of September 30, 2021. Cell C remains focused on its recapitalization and implementing various initiatives to improve its operational performance. While it remains in default on its various lending arrangements, Cell C and its lenders continue to work constructively and are making steady progress towards its recapitalization.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, including the ongoing uncertainty in the current economic environment due to the outbreak of COVID-19. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty, the determination of estimates requires management’s judgment based on a variety of assumptions and other determinants such as historical experience, current and expected market conditions and certain scientific evaluation techniques.

Critical accounting policies are those that reflect significant judgments or uncertainties and may potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We have identified the following critical accounting policies that are described in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021:

 Valuation of investment in Cell C;

 Recoverability of equity-accounted investments and other equity securities;

 Business combinations and the recoverability of goodwill;

 Intangible assets acquired through acquisitions;

 Deferred taxation;

 Stock-based compensation; and

 Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts receivable.

Currency Exchange Rate Information

Actual exchange rates

The actual exchange rates for and at the end of the periods presented were as follows:

Translation exchange rates for financial reporting purposes

We are required to translate our results of operations from ZAR to U.S. dollars on a monthly basis. Thus, the average rates used to translate this data for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, vary slightly from the averages shown in the table above. The translation rates we use in presenting our results of operations are the rates shown in the following table:

| Three months ended |  | Year ended
Table 2 | September 30, |  | June 30,
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021
Income and expense items: $1 = ZAR | 14.6129 |  | 16.7738 |  | 15.7162
Balance sheet items: $1 = ZAR | 15.1150 |  | 16.8344 |  | 14.3010

Results of Operations

The discussion of our consolidated overall results of operations is based on amounts as reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements which are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We analyze our results of operations both in U.S. dollars, as presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and supplementally in ZAR, because ZAR is the functional currency of the entities which contribute the majority of our revenue and is the currency in which the majority of our transactions are initially incurred and measured. Due to the significant impact of currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the ZAR on our reported results and because we use the U.S. dollar as our reporting currency, we believe that the supplemental presentation of our results of operations in ZAR is useful to investors to understand the changes in the underlying trends of our business.

Our operating segment revenue presented in “—Results of operations by operating segment” represents total revenue per operating segment before intercompany eliminations. A reconciliation between total operating segment revenue and revenue presented in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is included in Note 17 to those statements.

We analyze our business and operations in terms of three inter-related but independent operating segments: (1) Processing, (2) Financial services and (3) Technology. In addition, corporate and corporate office activities that are impracticable to allocate directly to any of the other operating segments, as well as any inter-segment eliminations, are included in Corporate/Eliminations.

37

First quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to first quarter of fiscal 2021

The following factors had a significant impact on our results of operations during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared with the same period in the prior year:

 Lower revenue: Our revenues decreased 14% in ZAR primarily due to fewer prepaid airtime and hardware sales and lower transaction fee revenue;

 Lower operating losses: Operating losses have reduced by 9% in ZAR compared with the prior period primarily due to the closure of IPG and lower legal and consulting fees (excluding those related to the Connect Group transaction). We continue to experience operating losses because of depressed revenues and have embarked on a plan to reduce operating expenses, including closing our mobile payment infrastructure;

 Foreign exchange movements: The U.S. dollar was 13% weaker against the ZAR during the first quarter of fiscal 2022, which impacted our reported results.

Consolidated overall results of operations

This discussion is based on the amounts prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The following tables show the changes in the items comprising our statements of operations, both in U.S. dollars and in ZAR:

Net (loss) income attributable to us | (189,880) |  | (485,735) |  | (61%)

(A) Revenue and cost of goods sold, IT processing, servicing and support have been restated for the error described in Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. There was no impact on operating loss as a result of the restatement.

The decrease in revenue was primarily due to fewer prepaid airtime and hardware sales and lower transaction fee revenue, which was partially offset by higher lending revenues.

The decrease in cost of goods sold, IT processing, servicing and support was primarily due to lower cost of prepaid airtime and hardware sales, which was partially offset by higher costs related to transaction fees and an increase in insurance-related claims experience.

In ZAR, the decrease in selling, general and administration expense was primarily due to lower IPG-related expenses incurred following its closure and lower legal and consulting fees, which was partially offset by the year-over-year impact of inflationary increases on employee-related expenses.

Depreciation and amortization decreased primarily due to lower overall depreciation related to tangible assets that were fully depreciated during the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Our operating loss margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 was (32.5%) and (30.7%), respectively. We discuss the components of operating loss margin under “—Results of operations by operating segment.”

Interest on surplus cash decreased to $0.4 million (ZAR 5.7 million) from $0.6 million (ZAR 10.2 million), primarily due to lower average daily cash balances and lower average interest rates applied to daily cash balances during the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

Interest expense increased to $0.8 million (ZAR 11.9 million) from $0.7 million (ZAR 12.5 million), primarily as a result of a higher utilization of our ATM facilities to fund our ATMs.

Fiscal 2022 tax expense was $0.2 million (ZAR 2.7 million) compared to a tax benefit of $(1.1) million (ZAR (18.3) million) in fiscal 2021. Our effective tax rate for fiscal 2022 was impacted by the tax charge related to our profitable South African operations, non-deductible expenses, the on-going losses incurred by certain of our South African businesses and the associated valuation allowances created related to the deferred tax assets recognized regarding net operating losses incurred by these entities.

Our effective tax rate for fiscal 2021 was impacted by the reversal of the deferred tax liability related to one of our equity-accounted investments following its impairment, which was partially offset by the tax charge related to our profitable South African operations, non-deductible expenses, the on-going losses incurred by certain of our South African businesses and the associated valuation allowances created related to the deferred tax assets recognized regarding net operating losses incurred by these entities.

(1) Consolidated revenue-Processing-All others for the three months ended September 30, 2020 has been restated for the error described in Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. There was no impact on operating loss as a result of the restatement.

Processing

Excluding IPG, segment revenue decreased primarily due to fewer prepaid airtime sales and a reduction in volume-driven transaction fees, including as a result of the South African banking industry’s decision to waive fees charged to customers for utilizing other banks’ ATMs in August and September 2021. Excluding IPG, Processing’s operating loss has been impacted by the lower revenue.

Our operating loss margin (calculated as operating (loss) income divided by revenue) for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 was (33.4%) and (32.4%), respectively. Excluding IPG, our operating loss margin for the Processing segment was (21.3%) during the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Financial services

Segment revenue increased due to higher account fee revenue following an increase in the number of EPE accounts, an increase in lending revenue as a result of improved lending activity, and an increase in insurance revenues from an increase in business written. The increase in operating loss is primarily due to the increase in insurance-related claims experienced this quarter attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic as well as higher employee costs compared with the prior period.

Our operating loss margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 was (28.2%) and (28.7%), respectively.

Technology

Segment revenue decreased due to fewer hardware sales compared to the prior period. Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was directly impacted by the lower revenue compared with fiscal 2021.

Our operating income margin for the Technology segment was 12.5% and 28.6% during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021, respectively.

41

Corporate/Eliminations

Our corporate expenses generally include acquisition-related intangible asset amortization; expenses incurred related to corporate actions; expenditure related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; non-employee directors’ fees; employee and executive bonuses; stock-based compensation; legal fees; audit fees; directors and officer’s insurance premiums; telecommunications expenses; and elimination entries.

Our corporate expenses for fiscal 2022 decreased compared with fiscal 2021 due to lower legal and consulting fees incurred. We expect to incur additional expenses related to the Connect Group transaction in the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2021, our cash and cash equivalents were $188.5 million and comprised of U.S. dollar-denominated balances of $162.5 million, ZAR-denominated balances of ZAR 0.4 billion ($23.7 million), and other currency deposits, primarily Botswana pula, of $2.3 million, all amounts translated at exchange rates applicable as of September 30, 2021. The decrease in our unrestricted cash balances from June 30, 2021, was primarily due to weak trading activities and utilization of cash reserves to fund our operations.

We generally invest any surplus cash held by our South African operations in overnight call accounts that we maintain at South African banking institutions, and any surplus cash held by our non-South African companies in U.S. dollar-denominated money market accounts.

Historically, we have financed most of our operations, research and development, working capital, and capital expenditures, as well as acquisitions and strategic investments, through internally generated cash and our financing facilities. When considering whether to borrow under our financing facilities, we consider the cost of capital, cost of financing, opportunity cost of utilizing surplus cash and availability of tax efficient structures to moderate financing costs.

Available short-term borrowings

Summarized below are our short-term facilities available and utilized as of September 30, 2021:

(1) Overdraft may only be used to fund mobile ATMs and upon utilization is considered restricted cash.

(2) Indirect and derivative facilities may only be used for guarantees, letters of credit and forward exchange contracts to support guarantees issued by Nedbank to various third parties on our behalf.

Restricted cash

We have credit facilities with RMB and Nedbank in order to access cash to fund our ATMs in South Africa. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash presented in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows as of September 30, 2021, includes restricted cash of approximately $51.6 million related to cash withdrawn from our various debt facilities to fund ATMs. This cash may only be used to fund ATMs and is considered restricted as to use and therefore is classified as restricted cash on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

We have also entered into cession and pledge agreements with Nedbank related to certain of our Nedbank credit facilities and we have ceded and pledged certain bank accounts to Nedbank. The funds included in these bank accounts are restricted as they may not be withdrawn without the express permission of Nedbank. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash presented in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows as of September 30, 2021, includes restricted cash of approximately $10.4 million that has been ceded and pledged.

Cash flows from operating activities

First quarter

Net cash used in operating activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was $7.9 million (ZAR 116.1 million) compared to $29.9 million (ZAR 501.2 million) during the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the impact of income taxes, our cash used in operating activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was impacted by the cash losses incurred by the majority of our continuing operations.

There were no significant tax payments made or refunds received during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we paid South African tax of $0.2 million (ZAR 3.4 million) related to our 2020 tax year. We also paid taxes totaling $15.2 million in other tax jurisdictions, primarily in the U.S.

Taxes paid during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

Cash flows from investing activities

First quarter

Cash used in investing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 included capital expenditures of $0.7 million (ZAR 10.2 million), primarily due to the roll out of our new express branches.

Cash used in investing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2021 included capital expenditures of $0.3 million (ZAR 4.6 million), primarily due to the acquisition of computer equipment and leasehold improvements in South Africa. We received $20.1 million related to the sale of our Korean business in March 2020 following the successful refund application of the amounts withheld and paid to the South Korean tax authorities pursuant to that transaction. We also received the first of the eighteen scheduled repayments due on the deferred sale proceeds related to the April 2020 sale of DNI.

Cash flows from financing activities

First quarter

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we utilized approximately $138.9 million from our South African overdraft facilities to fund our ATMs and repaid $98.9 million of these facilities.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we utilized approximately $69.1 million from our South African overdraft facilities to fund our ATMs, and repaid $76.9 million of these facilities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Capital Expenditures

We expect capital spending for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 to primarily include limited investments into our ATM infrastructure and branch network in South Africa. Our capital expenditures for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 are discussed under “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Cash flows from investing activities.” All of our capital expenditures for the past three fiscal years were funded through internally generated funds. We had outstanding capital commitments as of September 30, 2021, of $1.0 million. We expect to fund these expenditures through internally generated funds and available facilities.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In addition to the tables below, see Note 4 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of market risk.

We have short-term borrowings which attract interest at rates that fluctuate based on changes in the South African prime interest rate. The following table illustrates the effect on our annual expected interest charge, translated at exchange rates applicable as of September 30, 2021, as a result of changes in the South African prime interest rate, assuming hypothetical short-term borrowings of ZAR 1.0 billion as of September 30, 2021. The effect of a hypothetical 1% (i.e. 100 basis points) increase and a 1% decrease in the South African prime interest rate as of September 30, 2021, are shown. The selected 1% hypothetical change does not reflect what could be considered the best or worst case scenarios.

Table 10 | As of March 31, 2021
| Annual expected interest charge ($ ’000) |  | Hypothetical change in interest rates |  | Estimated annual expected interest charge after hypothetical change in interest rates ($ ’000)
Interest on South Africa overdraft (South African prime interest rate) | 4,631 |  | 1% |  | 5,293

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our group chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of September 30, 2021. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the group chief executive officer and the chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Resolution of NCR application for the cancelation of Moneyline’s registration as a credit provider

In September 2014, the NCR applied to the South African National Consumer Tribunal, or Tribunal, to cancel the registration of our subsidiary, Moneyline, for breach of the NCA based on an investigation concluded by it. We raised a number of procedural points in defense and argument on these points was heard on November 27, 2015, before three tribunal members. Two ruled against us and one upheld our points. We appealed the majority ruling to the High Court. This matter was heard on December 4, 2018, by a full bench of the Pretoria High Court. In opposing this appeal, the NCR contended that our appeal had no basis and they raised, as a procedural point, that we should have joined the Tribunal as a party to the appeal proceedings. On August 30, 2019, it was ordered that the Tribunal be included in the appeal proceedings and this appeal was scheduled to be heard on October 27, 2021.

The parties settled the matter out of court in mid-October 2021. The settlement process included the NCR withdrawing its application to cancel our NCA registration with the Tribunal and we agreed to withdraw our appeal with the High Court. The settlement was made an order of the High Court on October 27, 2021. The parties agreed to pay their own costs related to this matter.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

See “Item 1A RISK FACTORS” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, for a discussion of risk factors relating to (i) our business, (ii) operating in South Africa and other foreign markets, (iii) government regulation, and (iv) our common stock. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

Failure to complete, or delays in completing, the Connect Group acquisition, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and stock price.

The completion of the Connect Group acquisition is subject to a number of conditions precedent, including receipt of regulatory approvals, certain third-party consents and the completion of financing arrangements. Some of these conditions are outside our control.

To complete the acquisition, we must make certain filings with and obtain certain consents and approvals from various governmental and regulatory authorities. The regulatory approval processes may take a lengthy period of time to complete, and there can be no assurance as to the outcome of the approval processes, including the undertakings and conditions that may be required for approval, or whether the regulatory approvals will be obtained at all.

We signed non-binding term sheets for a ZAR 2.35 billion ($154.4 million) debt package with RMB. The finalization of binding lending agreements may take some time to complete, and there can be no assurance as to the outcome, including abiding with the undertakings and conditions included in the non-binding term sheets. Furthermore, we have agreed that if certain conditions related to our debt financing are not satisfied by their respective due dates for fulfilment for any reason, we have agreed to pay to the Connect Group sellers an amount of ZAR 50,000,000.

As we expect to finance a significant portion of the acquisition price using the debt package we expect that we will be required to provide certain of our assets as security against the debt package. The final financing agreements are also expected to contain covenants that that will require us to maintain certain specified financial ratios and may place restrictions on our ability to make certain distributions from the target group, prepay other debt, encumber their assets, incur additional indebtedness, make capital expenditures above specified levels, engage in certain business combinations and engage in other corporate activities. These security arrangements and covenants may reduce our operating flexibility or our ability to engage in other transactions that may be beneficial to us. If we are unable to comply with these covenants, we could be in default under the financing agreements and the indebtedness negotiated thereunder could be accelerated. Furthermore, we may not be able to service scheduled debt or interest repayments, or both, as a result of our inability to generate sufficient future cash flows, which may place us in contravention of the terms of the financing agreements and which may result in an event of default. If any of these events were to occur, we might not be able to obtain waivers of default or to refinance the debt with another lender and as a result, our business and financial condition would suffer.

The non-binding term sheets also include a credit enhancement mechanism of ZAR 350 million ($23.0 million), which will be provided by investment funds managed by Net1’s largest shareholder, Value Capital Partners (Pty) Ltd (“VCP”), on commercially agreed terms, which include a contingent subscription for new shares. There can be no assurance that VCP will perform under the commercially agreed terms and failure by it to fulfil its obligation under the credit enhancement mechanism may put our funding or future repayments at risk.

In addition, the completion of the acquisition is conditional on, among other things, no action or circumstance occurring that would result in a material adverse effect on the Connect Group’s business operations or financial results.

45

We cannot provide any assurance regarding if or when all conditions precedent to the acquisition will be satisfied or waived. If, for any reason, the acquisition is not completed, its completion is materially delayed and/or the share purchase agreement is terminated, the market price of our common stock may be materially and adversely affected.

In addition, if the acquisition is not completed for any reason, there are risks that the announcement of the acquisition and the dedication of management’s attention and other of our resources to the completion thereof could have a negative impact on our relationships with our stakeholders and could have a material adverse effect on our current and future operations, financial condition and prospects.

We may not realize some or all of the anticipated benefits from the Connect Group acquisition.

Even if we complete the Connect Group acquisition, we may experience unforeseen events, changes or circumstances that may adversely affect us. For example, we may incur unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the transaction, including charges to future earnings if the Connect Group’s business does not perform as expected. Our expectations regarding the Connect Group’s business and prospects may not be realized, including as a result of changes in the financial condition of the markets that the Connect Group serves. In addition, there are risks associated with the Connect Group’s product and service offerings or results of operations, including the risk of reduced cash settlements through Connect Group’s vault infrastructure or higher cash losses, lower than expected growth in Connect Group’s value-added services, lower than expected levels of loan advances or higher credit losses and slower than expected growth in card transactions. Further, there are numerous challenges, risks and costs involved with integrating the operations of Connect Group with ours. For example, Integrating the Connect Group into our company will require significant attention from our senior management which may divert their attention from our day-to-day business. The difficulties of integration may be increased by cultural differences between our two organizations and the necessity of retaining and integrating personnel, including Connect Group’s key employees. Furthermore, our management certification and auditor attestation regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022, will likely exclude the operations of the Connect Group. If some or all of the aforementioned or other risks materialize, our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Connect Group could be materially impaired, and as a result, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and stock price could suffer.
